Not guilty?

Even though Teen Mom is about love, families, children, and happily ever afters, there have been some very dark moments along the way. However, when one Teen Mom cast member was linked to charges of child molestation, it disturbed many fans more than anything that preceded it.

Now, months after the news broke, it has come out that the accused is pleading not guilty to their involvement in this underage scandal.

On Dec. 8 2017, he was arrested for “trying to arrange a sexual encounter with a 14-year-old girl” in Altoona according to the Leader Telegram . He has since been charged with “felony counts of use of a computer to facilitate a child sex crime, child enticement and attempted sexual assault of a child younger than 16.”

What Alex didn’t know is that he was actually talking with an undercover Altoona police officer who was posing as a child. The officer replied to an ad Alex posted saying he was looking to meet someone who “wanted to have some fun.”
At the time of his arrest, Alex admitted he wanted to have sex with the 14-year-old girl, and officers found condoms in his car.
